Mail ;-)

Finally received! Application delivered: March 15th Credit Card charged: April 7th First passport received (mine) - May 20th Second passport received (spouse) - May 24th Applications sent together in same envelope from Ontario to Gatineau, both charged on the same day. Caused me some stress...

Update May 13: Got through via phone. Both files still in examination, and told me to call back in 2 weeks as the agent was hopeful there would have been some movement by then. She mentioned she could see the scanned documents and didn't see any issues on the file, but couldn't give me any other...

Applied by mail, delivered March 15, CC charged April 7th. Got through to them today (168th in line, took about 40 mins) and file is still "under examination" and wouldn't give any estimate - just got the usual point that they could try and transfer my file if I had proof I was travelling within...

Thanks! Any thought how to enter the seat number in this case? Mid December, and Scarborough

No it was paper, when we applied it was not allowed to do a family application online (maybe that changed now). Don't have the exact timeline to hand but my application was delivered end of May, AOR was sometime early September, took the test in December.

My husband and I just received our Oath invites (hurray!) Wondered if anyone knows how to attend the Zoom call for joint applicants. The instructions say: enter your seat number instead of your name when connecting to Zoom But it also says: Appear on the same device as your family members...

This is really helpful both - thank you so much. I'll take the test next week then, before I leave, and watch out for the invitation later this week.

Hi all, sorry if this has been asked before! I have a notice on my account saying "Take the Citizenship test" (Dec 10 - 30) and I should read the invitation carefully. The update was made December 3rd. But, I haven't received any invitation and it's now the 6th, Does anyone know how/when I get...

Thanks, yes I did (and landed/got PR card). Hope you get PPR soon!

I had the same issue. People on here advised me to take new photos just in case. The agent did ask for them during the landing, but then seemed to change their mind and handed them straight back (so I still have them!). So if you can take them, please do for your peace of mind. Maybe...

It was empty on my COPR, so they wrote that information on by hand.

Received 1 card Thursday 28th, and the other Tuesday 2nd. Mine was sent to my office address, which was very odd!

I think it would be hard to use a passport booth photo. I'm not sure if you can get a booth to do the right size (50mm x 70mm) - much bigger than our UK passport photos. And even if the booth would do the right size, you have to have the name, address and date of the commercial photographer...

Yes - it all seems to happen at the same time, I logged in earlier today and my application still just said "Submitted" (as it did since the ghost update), then when I looked again later it goes straight to your card being mailed. There doesn't seem to be just a regular "approved" status prior...

Log back in to your account, once again it will say Application Updated. Click on that, and it will say "A final decision has been made" in the top left. Scroll down to the bottom, and it will tell you your card has been mailed and it could take 6 weeks to arrive (which I think is a big...

Landed: 5th March (inland) Ghost Update: 22nd March (or around then!) Mailed: 25th March (today) Much quicker than expected!

You have to perform your PR landing in Pearson there and then when you land. They will ask you for an address to mail your PR card to (it takes 8 weeks ish). If you don't have an address yet I believe you can inform them later of where to send the card to. You can get your SIN in Kitchener...

Huh, that's not what the letter says. It says if you have valid OHIP already, you need only call. Sadly I didn't call yet so maybe they will tell me to go to an office (was hoping to avoid until current card expires). Will call and report back.

My work permit was almost brand new (just renewed it) and COPR expiry was in May. Did you receive the automatic email response first? You should get an automatic response very quickly, and then later a real response with an appointment time. And, are you sure your office is Etobicoke? As far...
